Abstract

The device (1) has a light guide (7) with a light diffusion solid surface (11) flatten against a lower surface of an electrically insulating plate constituted of a control strip. A transparent/translucent part of the plate is realized opposite to an opaque solid detection face (5) of a sensitive key (4) for allowing passage of the light emitted by a luminous source (13) and diffused through the guide. An icon is represented on the plate and realized on a part of a zone defined by the projection of the face on the plate. The solid surface covers a surface of the icon represented on the plate.
